There was a great deal of speculation that a big time Florida law majority partner and founder Democrat John Morgan was going to run for Florida Governor. Morgan has been growing in political influence within Florida for years and was a massive donor to Democrats. Well, he just quit the Democrat Party.

Morgan also provided the landing place for Charlie Crist when his Senatorial political aspirations collapsed in 2010 under the weight of his evolution from Republican, to independent, to Democrat.

TALLAHASSEE — John Morgan tossed a bomb Friday into the 2018 political landscape, saying in a post-Thanksgiving message he is leaving the Democratic Party, and that Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson should not run for re-election, but rather seek the governor’s mansion so he can leave a “legacy.”

“I can’t muster enthusiasm for any of today’s politicians,” the prominent trial lawyer and Democratic fundraiser wrote on Twitter. “They are all the same. Both parties. I plan to register as an independent and when I vote, vote for the lesser of two evils.”

[…] Morgan said, while he would support some Democratic candidates he likes, he would not raise a dime for national groups like the Democratic National Committee.

“F— no,” he said when asked if he would help national organizations. “That’s like pissing money down a rat hole. Read Donna [Brazile’s] book”

Morgan was referring to a book by the former interim DNC chair, previewed this month in POLITICO Magazine, where she says the party essentially rigged the DNC to support Hillary Clinton before the Democratic primary was over.

And I can’t muster enthusiasm for any of today’s politicians. They are all the same. Both parties. I plan to register as an Independent and when I vote, vote for the lesser of two evils. And if I ever ran, run as an Independent. #ForThePeople

Judging by his plan to be “voting for the lesser of two evils”, he sounds like today’s establishment Republican being steamrollered by MAGA. Good luck with that! Because it worked so well for the nose-holding conservatives before they finally finally woke up to the corrupt uniparty problem. He should be expecting a call from William Krystol and Mitt Romney any time now. Misery loves company.

He’s a trial lawyer. All he cares about is winning for himself and getting paid handsomely. He’s the same as the people he is fed up with. He’s crying because his party isn’t in power and Trump can’t be bought.

Both Morgan and Stone have been longtime advocates for cannabis legalization. Morgan, who founded one of the country’s largest personal injury law firms, was largely responsible for bringing medical marijuana to Florida. Stone has been advocating for legalization throughout his political career.
The main goal of the group, according to its press release, is to urge President Trump to honor the pledge that he made several times during the 2016 campaign, that he would support each states’ authority to legalize the possession and sales of cannabis.

“They are all the same. Both parties. I plan to register as an independent and when I vote, vote for the lesser of two evils.”
Uniparty corruptocrats.
Many Washington bureaucrats are also venal and incompetent.

ROI – return on investment – who wouldn’t look at what they got for the massive investment made? Any donor would like to believe they made a difference, he’s a smart guy and he sees the writing writ large on the wall and it says…

But for different reasons. He like others put up huge piles of money to be powerful when Hillary got in office. It was just another pay to play scheme and she lost. The media ain’t reporting it but there are a lot of these pissed off bankers and lawyers wanting to know where the money went.

Bill Nelson shouldn’t run for Senate again because he’s going to lose to Rick Scott.
As for governor, they are going to run a Graham scion.
Thinking all the voters will remember how grand it was with him running around taking notes.

More virtue signalling by this fat painted pig. Hell no. I don’t want you as gov of fl. This is just to distance himself from the dnc. He has and always been a libtard and always will be. Alfcio are his buddies. Sheister attorney.

The Senate is voting right now on my amendment to scrap this disastrous GOP tax bill and force the Senate to come up with a new bipartisan bill that actually helps the middle class.
